The following table provides a short summary of problems you may encounter when you use the Collection Class Library, and directs you to a section containing hints for a solution.
| Problem Effect | Problem Area |
|---|---|
| Compilation Errors Indicating a Problem with Constructors | Default constructor is missing |
| Compilation Errors Indicating that an Element Type or Function Is Not Declared | Declaration of template arguments and element functions not recognized |
| Compilation Errors about Multiple Definitions | Header files may be included more than once |
| Compiler Warning of an Error in istdops.h | Global key function return value incorrect |
| Link or Bind Errors about Multiple Definitions | Header files may be included more than once |
| Link or Bind Error Indicating istdops.h | No declaration of global key function |
| Unexpected Exception Tracing Output | Trace function write is called whether or not the related exception is caught |
| Unexpected Results when Adding an Element to a Unique Key Collection | Global key function return value incorrect |
| Unexpected Results when Using Cursors | Undefined cursor used |
